Effects of (un)employment on young couples’ health and life satisfaction
2012
This study investigated effects of employed and unemployed job status on health outcomes with questionnaires in 50 young couples. Analysis of variance revealed higher pessimism, higher stress levels, and lower life satisfaction in couples in which one partner was unemployed.

A longitudinal examination of dyadic distress patterns following a skills intervention for carers of adolescents with anorexia nervosa
2016
Family interventions in anorexia nervosa (AN) have been developed to ameliorate maladaptive patterns of patient-carer interaction that can play a role in illness maintenance.

Symptoms of Depression and Status in the European Labour Market
2017
This study uses three rounds of European Social Survey to study the effects from the status in the labour market of individuals from general population on the strength of their depression symptoms.

The main result is that not only overeducation but also (though to a smaller extent) undereducation is associated with an increased presence of depression symptoms. Health, income, personality, religion, the frequency of watching news on TV and partner’s status in the labour market are among the independent variables.
